Applications

Tech Note 1: Benefits
These application specific bolts differ from common 7/16" Grade 5 bolts by having a taller head and permanently attached concave washer which functions as both a flat washer and lock washer. While it may seem like these features are not worth the substantially higher cost compared to standard bolts, from my perspective as a long-term wrench turner, they are. First of all, you have to realize access to these bolts is quite restricted for many applications. The higher head makes it a whole lot easier to keep your 5/8" wrench or socket engaged on the fastener and believe me, mashing your knuckles when your wrench slips off is not much fun. The attached washer eliminates having to fumble around with separate lock washers and flat washers in the restricted areas around the CV output flange and transfer case shifter.

Tech Note 2: Sealants & Threadlockers
Early production NV4500 Transmissions used an anaerobic sealant (QU90003) to seal between the main case and input bearing retainer, top cover, and rear housing. Mid-production units used anaerobic sealant just on the input retainer and RTV for everything else. Later production transmissions used black RTV Sealant (QU90006 or QU90005) for everything. Either type of sealant works fine (except the PTO covers ALWAYS should be sealed with RTV), but I prefer RTV for all components. Regardless of which sealant you use, make sure excess sealant does not block the lube access hole at the top of input retainer pilot that fits into the transmission case! Also, the threaded holes in the main case for the four retainer bolts and 12 PTO bolts are open ended, so you must use new bolts with factory applied threadlocker or apply Threadlocker (S24200) to your existing bolts to prevent oil seepage past the bolt threads. See my TM1003 NV4500 Shop Manual or V1003DVD NV4500 Overhaul Video for more information.
